It's been a year since I went to the recruitment workshop in Billund which landed me my dream job! I haven't been making YouTube video, but I have been building MORE THAN EVER. Can't wait to show you what I have been up to.
Since I was a kid, my dream job has always been to be a LEGO designer. Everything I’ve done has been geared toward that goal. I chose a bachelor’s in visual communication, knowing it would help me get into the Master’s in Play @dskd_play in Denmark, a step toward working at The LEGO Group. I was thrilled when I got a job at my local LEGO Store in 2018, and even more excited when I joined TLG’s social media team as a student worker. But nothing topped the call I received last week at a LEGO convention, offering me a role as a LEGO model designer.😁
I’ve been building all my life– 25 years. Star Wars inspired me early on, it was a perfect blend with LEGO bricks. I joined online LEGO communities, sharing my builds on YouTube, where I was inspired by creators like @solid_brix and his Kashyyyk MOC series. Later, I joined @rebellug and attended conventions across Europe, starting with @brickingbavaria in 2017. Through these events, I met talented builders and friends who pushed my skills to new heights.
When I moved to Denmark two years ago, I focused on my studies and completed my master’s with top grades, earning an award for my thesis, developed with TLG and my mentor @nicolaas_vas . I remember jumping like crazy when @ashtemple told me I got a student job at TLG. Working as an unofficial builder for TLG’s social media was an amazing experience where I met incredible people. I also did some side quests at LEGO Education, Creative Play Lab and LEGO House.
The hiring process was long, but the final workshop was thrilling. I remember being a teen watching videos of @justinramsden participating in the workshop, so actually being in one was surreal.
I couldn’t have made it here without the support of so many people—childhood friends, school friends, convention mates, my grandma, brother and sister, and most of all, my parents, who always believed in me and supported me to chase my dream. Last, but not least I must thank all of YOU for supporting me through the years, without you I wouldn’t have gotten here. Love 🫶
I’m so excited for the next step and hopefully one day I can make sets that inspire children, as I was inspired all those years ago.♥️ #lego#dreamjob
